Joseph Moncure March (1899–1977) was the first managing editor of The New Yorker, and helped create the magazine’s Talk of the Town front section. After leaving the magazine, March wrote the first of his two important Jazz Age narrative poems, The Wild Party. In 1928 he followed it with The Set-Up. Moving to Hollywood in 1929 he became the scriptwriter who turned the silent version of Howard Hughes’ classic Hell’s Angels into a talkie – a rewrite that brought the phrase “Excuse me while I put on something more comfortable" into the American lexicon. A screenwriter in Hollywood until 1940, March eventually became a writer of documentaries for the US State Department and a feature writer for The New York Times Magazine.
